Pawan Kalyan in Katamarayudu (2017)

Review by shobanchittuprolu

Katamarayudu

4/10

Katamarayudu is strictly meant for Power Star's die-hard fans.

Katamarayudu (2017): Generally remakes of movies are having less buzz now-a-days as development of technology and availability of movies of all languages in torrents and other websites got huge following all over world.So everyone has the chance of watching the popular movies of other languages which are available with subtitles too.But surprisingly Power Star decided to remake Veeram which was released back in 2014 and even got dubbed into Telugu as Veerudokkade.Veeram is a routine commercial film which only worked because of Ajith's tremendous performance.Did Katamarayudu work with Power Star's presence?

Plot:

In a Rayalaseema village, Katamarayudu (Pawan Kalyan) is a sort of good leader to the villagers and he uses violence to settle disputes. He hates of idea of marriage and remains bachelor, while his four brothers have girlfriends. They hatch a plan to make his brother fall in love with Avanthi (Shruti Haasan). He indeed falls for her beauty. The trouble is her father (Nasser) doesn't like any person who indulges in violence. To win the love, Katamarayudu renounces violence but soon he comes to know that revenge-seeking convict (Tarun Arora) is hatching plan to kill Avanthi's father who is retired judge. How Katamarayudu who came to Avanthi's village to win her love becomes savior of their family is told in rest of the movie.

Plus Points:

1)Power Star: Pawan Kalyan is undoubtedly the biggest attraction of Katamarayudu. He perfectly suits the elder brother's character and carries the entire film on his shoulders. Right from Pawan's traditional look to his classy dialogues, the star hero does full justice and impresses in his famous mannerisms.His dances,fights and especially his comedy timing worked and its surely is a treat for his fans.

Minus Points:

Except Pawan Kalyan,Katamarayudu is a totally unnecessary remake.Still I couldn't even guess Why Power star committed for this remake?.

This movie has no novelty in scenes and all the scenes are just a rehash of scenes we have seen earlier in lot of films.It followed the same template of a fight followed by a romantic/emotional scene which was further followed by a mindless comedy and it returns back to another fight.

Comedy by Ajay is far better than Ali.Pawan did good comedy in few scenes than Ali.SO what is the need of Ali in this film?

Rao Ramesh irritated with his lousy Seema accent.Pradeep Rawat and Tarun Arora failed to impress.

Sruthi Hasan has lost her charm and has nothing to perform in this film.

Music is a total letdown.BGM is poor.

So,Katamarayudu is strictly meant for Power Star's die-hard fans.

My Rating 4.25/10
